# Line 26 | Line 26 | Basilisk II has currently been ported to
26      IRIX 6.5)
27    - AmigaOS 3.x
28    - Windows NT 4.0 (mostly works under Windows 95/98, too)
29 +  - Mac OS X 10.1
30  
31   Some features of Basilisk II:
32    - Emulates either a Mac Classic (which runs MacOS 0.x thru 7.5)
# Line 68 | Line 69 | The settings are stored in a text file:

# Line 284 | Line 285 | screen <video mode>
285      application via Alt-Tab, Basilisk II is put in "snooze" mode (i.e. MacOS
286      is frozen).
287  
288 +  Mac OS X:
289 +    The "video mode" is one of the following:
290 +      win/<width>/<height>
291 +      win/<width>/<height>/<bits per pixel>
292 +        A refreshed (and buffered) [and very slow] Quartz window.
293 +        The default <bits> is 32, which is the only depth currently supported.
294 +      full/<width>/<height>
295 +      full/<width>/<height>/<bits per pixel>
296 +        A CGDirectDisplay full screen mode. <bits> can currently be 8, 16 or 32.
297 +        If not specified, the default is 32. There is currently no way to switch
298 +        between the Mac OS X and Basilisk II display, but Apple-Option-Escape
299 +        instantly and safely terminates the Basilisk II program.
300 +      opengl/<width>/<height>
301 +      opengl/<width>/<height>/<bits per pixel>
302 +        Currently unimplemented, will be a fast windowed mode.
303 +
304   seriala <serial port description>
305  
306    This item describes the serial port to be used as Port A (Modem Port)
# Line 555 | Line 572 | Unix:
572      the number of key events sent to MacOS for each wheel movement (the
573      number of lines to scroll).
574  
575 +  ignoresegv <"true" or "false">
576 +
577 +    Set this to "true" to ignore illegal memory accesses. The default
578 +    is "false". This feature is only implemented on the following
579 +    platforms: Linux/x86, Linux/ppc, Darwin/ppc.
580 +
581 +  dsp <device name>
582 +  mixer <device name>
583 +
584 +    Under Linux and FreeBSD, this specifies the devices to be used for sound
585 +    output and volume control, respectively. The defaults are "/dev/dsp" and
586 +    "/dev/mixer".
587 +
588   AmigaOS:

590    sound <sound output description>
# Line 652 | Line 682 | Windows:

685 + JIT-specific configuration
686 + --------------------------
687 +
688 + A Just-In-Time (JIT) translation engine is available for x86. This is
689 + aimed at translating 68040 instructions to native equivalent code
690 + sequences, thus providing faster emulation speeds.
691 +
692 +  jit <"true" or "false">
693 +
694 +    Set this to "true" to enable the JIT compiler. Default value is
695 +    "true" if the JIT compiler was compiled in. Besides, this is
696 +    effective only if Basilisk II is configured to emulate a 68040.
697 +
698 +  jitfpu <"true" or "false">
699 +
700 +    Set this to "true" to enable translation of floating-point (FPU)
701 +    instructions. Default is "true".
702 +
703 +  jitcachesize <size>
704 +
705 +    Allocate "size" kilobytes of RAM for the translation cache. The
706 +    value given will be rounded down to the nearest multiple of a page
707 +    size. Minimal value is "2048" (2MB). Default value is "8192" (8MB).
708 +
709 +  jitlazyflush <"true" or "false">
710 +
711 +    Set this to "true" to enable lazy invalidation of the translation
712 +    cache. This is always recommended as it usually makes the system
713 +    more responsive and faster, especially while running MacOS
714 +    8.X. Default value is "true".
715 +
716 +  jitdebug <"true" or "false">
717 +
718 +    Set this to "true" to enable the JIT debugger. This requires a
719 +    build of Basilisk II with the cxmon debugger. Default is "false".
